LUXURY MARKET REPORT

SECOND QUARTER 2016

Aloha and welcome to The Quarterly Luxury Market Report from LIST Sotheby’s International Realty, where we take a closer look at the most recent real estate activity here on Oahu.

For single-family homes in the $2 to $3 million range, sales increased by 68.8% to 27 homes sold, up from 16 last year at this time. Months’ supply of inventory was up, too, increasing 10.1% to 14.4 months for the quarter.

Our report breaks the Oahu luxury home market into four single-family home and two condominium price segments.

Single-family homes priced from $3 to $5 million decreased by 40% compared to last year, with 9 homes sold in Q2 2016 compared to 15 homes in Q2 2015. Months’ supply of inventory decreased by 2.9% to 24.9 months.

Single-family home sales for Q2 2016 priced from $1 to $2 million increased by 6.4% compared to Q2 2015, with 184 homes sold. This price point has 7.8 months’ supply of inventory, an increase of 6.5 percent compared to last year at this time. There remains a good amount of inventory in this price range, and an increase of supply was a mild and not unpleasant surprise for this time of year.

In the second quarter of 2016, 8 homes sold in our top segment of single-family homes at $5 million or higher, including homes in Diamond Head, Hawaii Loa Ridge, Lanikai, Sunset Beach and in Kailua’s Beachside neighborhood, including our own record-breaking sale of $17,375,000 for an incredible home on Kailuana Place.

Before we look at luxury condos, here’s a quick view of Oahu’s overall market for Q2 as reported by the Honolulu Board of REALTORS®. Over the first half of 2016, 1,713 single-family homes were sold on Oahu, up 7.8% compared to last year.
